I've got a dirty little secret...a dirty little secret...

You're too funny! Dremel's *are* a girl's best friend- the last time I got my nails done they used one.

Target sells bamboo cutlery organizers that fit perfectly in 10.5" bathroom drawers. I used one when I organized my sister-in-law's makeup for her. They also sell tray organizers in canvas and other materials that aren't run-of-the-mill plastic for larger drawers. My husband loves the 9-section square tray he uses for his colognes. Recommend a trip to Target for organizational stuff.

The magnet boards are a GREAT idea! Wish I'd thought of it!

I love shopping at Target & always find *finds*!

Today we hotfooted it to WM for a large dry-erase magnetic board & magnets. All I did was got a decent start! *Did* manage to hang SN jars, my "working jars", that is, of e/s & blushes. Bronzers & finishers & foundation, I keep in 12 gm shaker jars on a turntable. I *love* 12 gm shaker jars! Ordered more magnets through Samantha's supplier tonight. I adore *color* & enjoy seeing them on display. A 2'x3' board hangs nicely alongside my bathroom mirror where I fluff. Now there's room for more!

Yep, Target is where I got the woven organizer. It's quite pretty and keeps things relatively contained so the cats don't fish the jars out to play floor hockey. If I leave one loose on the counter or dresser top, however, all bets are off! Fun to watch, though. Jar-pucks slide GREAT on a linoleum floor! Lauren

Me too, said as I'm picking up furry friend's eyeshadow hockey pucks from the tile kitchen floor , where they finally ended up.

HI, Girls,

Totally humbled by Xarata's amazing organization prowess, I did a little online research. It would appear that organizers used for beading could very useful for organizing MMU. Some have individual removeable pots, some have non-removable containers with indivdiual lids....Lots of possibilities. They are also very reasonable. Just do a search for "Bead organizer" and prepare to be amazed!! L.

I can't go look, hehe. My magnets (Sam's ebay supplier) arrived today & I got more jars put up. They look neat hanging on the wall & are visible without being tempting to furkids.

Double-tiered turntables (lazy susans) work perfectly for me for 12 gm shaker jars ~ LOVE those shaker jars!!! I put my SN mix into one ~ & the various finishers, etc. In the center (the "dead space") I have a snazzy mug with small magnifying mirror, eyelash curler & mascaras. Also have a ton (maybe 100?) of the 6 gm square shaker jars ~ they are soooooooo cute that I'd transferred a LOT of mmu into them before discovering SN. They look adorable ringing a turntable..& square jars don't attract my cats...lousy hockey pucks !

That's right, Mikey, we can't forget the hockey puck factor! Where did you get the small square jars? I'm such a miser when it comes to transferring MMU from one container to another. I hate wasting even a dusting of color! Do you have a technique for making the bottle transfer without losing half the treasure, or do you "dump and pray?" Lauren
